Patriotic Front of Zambia

The Patriotic Front (PF) is a social democratic and democratic socialist political party in Zambia that was founded in 2001. The party was formed by Michael Sata as a breakaway from the Movement for Multiparty Democracy in 2001 after President Frederick Chiluba nominated Levy Mwanawasa as its presidential candidate for the 2001 elections. In 2011, the PF gained power in the general elections, and Vice-President Guy Scott became Zambia's first white president after Sata died in office in 2015.
